| dbo:abstract | "Psychedelic Shack" is a 1969 single for the Motown label performed by The Temptations and produced by Norman Whitfield. It became a hit single in 1970. This single features the Temptations and Whitfield's continuing their submergence into psychedelia, with multilead vocals, hard rock guitars, synthesizer sound effects, multitracked drums, and stereo-shifting vocals giving the record a distinct sound. The song's title and lyrics refer to a type of hippie nightclub popular in the late 1960s. "Psychedelic Shack's" LP mix begins with the sounds of a person entering a psychedelic shack and dropping the needle on a record, "I Can't Get Next to You" which was the Temptations single that immediately preceded this one. The use of the recording of "I Can't Get Next to You" from its 45 RPM single makes "Psychedelic Shack" one of the first songs to use sampling, a technique that would become a staple of hip hop music in the coming decade. The song ends, after its fourth verse, with the Funk Brothers backing band going into a jam session as the song fades out. Keyboardist Earl Van Dyke remembers "Psychedelic Shack" as one of his favorite recording sessions. The full extended version of the song, with the complete jam session, went unreleased until a new six-minute mix of the record was done in 2003 for the compilation set. "Psychedelic Shack" was the title track from the Psychedelic Shack album, released in March 1970. The song reached #7 on the US Billboard Hot 100, #4 Cash Box, and #2 on the US R&B charts. (en) "Psychedelic Shack" is een hitsingle van de Amerikaanse soul- en R&B-groep The Temptations. Het nummer werd net voor de jaarwisseling, op 29 december, van 1969 uitgebracht en werd een hit in 1970. "Psychedelic Shack" is de enige single afkomstig van het gelijknamige album van The Temptations uit 1970. Opvolger van "Psychedelic Shack", "Ball Of Confusion (That's What The World Is Today)", zou in eerste instantie ook op het album verschijnen, maar uiteindelijk werd besloten dit niet te doen, omdat het niet veel met het album te maken zou hebben. "Psychedelic Shack" is, zoals veel nummers van The Temptations, geschreven door Norman Whitfield in samenwerking met Barrett Strong. Whitfield had volle controle over het nummer en niemand anders dan hem en tekstschrijver Strong werd toegestaan om zich te bemoeien met het nummer. Wel mocht zanger van The Temptations, Eddie Kendricks, sommige zangharmonieën bedenken en was er enige creatieve vrijheid voor de sessieband, The Funk Brothers. Bassist James Jamerson werd echter niet gebruikt, omdat er één vast basslijn was en Whitfield Jamerson niet vertrouwde dat hij zich aan die basslijn zou houden. , de pianist van The Funk Brothers, noemde echter "Psychedelic Shack" echter als een van de leukste opnamesessies binnen Motown. Het onderwerp van het nummer is de 'psychedelic shack' (letterlijk vertaald: psychedelische keet). Een 'psychelic shack' was een gebouw in achterbuurten waar mensen zich konden laten gaan door middel van muziek, kunst en softdrugs. In tegenstelling tot Cloud Nine, waar werd ontkend dat het nummer iets te doen had met drugs, gaat "Psychedelic Shack" dus wel degelijk over het gebruik van drugs. "Psychedelic Shack" is meerdere keren gecoverd, onder andere door een andere Motown act, . Hun versie van het nummer verscheen op het album "Rainbow Funk". De B-kant van de "Psychedelic Shack" van The Temptations was zelf ook een cover. Het nummer was "", origineel opgenomen door The Isley Brothers, maar pas tot hit gemaakt door Marvin Gaye. (nl) |
